If you are unable to find your company among the companies quoted in the daily newspaper, it may be suspended from quotation. It can be found on our website by:

2. Searching by company name (see box above left)
3. Clicking on the appropriate alpha digit (see the alphabet index above)

Often a company's shares are suspended from quotation for months or even years before it is either delisted or reinstated to quotation. About 150 ASX companies are suspended from quotation at any one time. As a general rule we monitor all companies suspended from quotation, whether in external administration or not.
If you are unable to find your company anywhere, or the information is incomplete or incomprehensible, please send us a message and we will try to assist. But please note we cannot assist with private (pty) companies, public companies that have never been listed or companies domiciled outside Australia or New Zealand.
If you find that your company is suspended and is not covered by us, please email admin@delisted.com.au and we will start to monitor it.
If the suspension is prolonged, an administrator - usually in conjunction with creditors or directors - is often deciding the company's fate.
Some companies suspended because of insolvency concerns, regain quotation but most fall by the wayside. They are eventually delisted and end up in liquidation or are recapitalised with little, if any, residual value left for shareholders.
